Thank you for helping me take that step closer to thinking I may be worth putting effort into.

    as a fellow acorn-collecting goblin, make sure that none of the acorns you take into your house have little holes in them! Those are from acorn weevils layin' their eggs inside. They may be cute but their babies are horrible little grubs who I did not appreciate finding in my home among my trinkets

    • @joannajax4555

      The hole is actually made when the larvae exit. When the weevil lays the egg, the acorn is still on the tree and the insertion hole heals and closes.

  • @MouseyKireena
    @MouseyKireena 3 місяці тому +39

    So I learned something about acorns you might find fascinating! When the trees drop them with their hats, they've actually been "infected" by an acorn weevil. So they're dropped with the hat to kind of trap them in there and keep them from coming back. Acorns you find without their hats are actually the fully developed seeds, and their hats are still on the tree.

    Idk if anyone has mentioned this but the cartridge pleating WAS worth all of your hard work. Different gathers and pleats lie different, and cartridge pleats create intentional vertical gathers which helps the fabric lay right where it’s all gathered up (ie it’s less “bulky”). Random gathers that happen from using a wide stitch and just, gathering, would give you a lot more bulk of fabric at the waist and leg bands, as well as they wouldn’t poof as nicely and uniformly. It would be noticeably different lol

You can build bases and unlock recipes to create new things, food, building plans, weapons, armor, etc. It's also very 80's coded so definitely takes some inspiration from Honey, I shrunk the kids and the Borrowers! You have to unravel the mystery of WHY you're little, how did you get shrunk, why are you here, etc. It's one of my favorite games!

    This entire project has touched me deeply. It is so heartwarming and creative, expressive, joyful, and just so very human.
    I tell you, the very existence of this project and this video, and you their creator, is strong evidence to restore anyone’s faith in humanity.

    Totally original. I love acorn army themes. I had a yellow pair or very soft cordory nickers when I was nine, as it was in the late seventies early eighties, I wore them like it was a new fashion. Also I've been overwhelmed with the heat also and acorns falling , the umbrella is helpful/ wings or tail.❤😊

      I was surprised she got a good image of a red squirrel ! They ARE native to Massachusetts (I live not far from Rachel - and no, I don't know exactly where she lives ! Mine lips are sealed!) BUT, the Grey squirrels that were introduced basically took over and chased the more shy, "demure" red squirrels away ! So, your chance of seeing a red squirrel are slight.
      Grey squirrels will "jump" you for snacks. They is tough little reprobates!
